Hey guys, today I want to share with you something that popped into my mind. I was driving in my car going my way and then the thought came into my mind, "The medical field is very much related to the gospel work." Doctors, nurses, patients, and medications...all of these have spiritual meaning. Here, see what I am talking about...

Matthew 9:12-13 On hearing this, Jesus said, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. But go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice.' For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

Here Christ said that the sick are the ones that need a doctor, so he has come to call the sinners.

Doctor = Christ

Patients = Sinners

Since we are the spiritual patients, Christ said that our sickness are our sins. According to Romans 6:23, the wages of sin is death. This is a very bad disease. So what is the cure that the doctor, Christ, will give us?

Matthew 26:28 "This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins."

Cure = Passover

As the cure for our sins, Christ gave us the New Covenant Passover to grant us forgiveness of sins. In taking our sins aways which lead to death, he grants us eternal life. However, we know that the doctor doesn't stay for long, it is actually the nurses that stay mostly with the patients. So who are the nurses and what are the doctor's orders they must follow?

Matthew 28:18-20 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

Nurses = Disciples

It seems a little funny but its true. Christ left the orders to the disciples to go to all nations baptizing them and then teaching them to obey everything he commanded them. In our times, Christ AhnSahngHong has given us this last command. He has restored the New Covenant Passover which has power to bring the dead back to life. Through his coming, we are healed. All this while driving a car. : )
